Documents show the Allegheny Health Network hospital system has asked the maker of the addictive cellphone game "Pokemon Go" to remove its facilities from the app out of safety, patient privacy and computer security concerns.

Douglas Braunsdorf, a public relations employee with Allegheny Health Network, confirmed that the seven-hospital system has demanded Niantic remove its locations from the app because they consider being listed on the smartphone game to be a safety issue.

Other companies, such as AAA, have safety concerns about "Pokemon Go" as well.

"Most of the time when you're using this app, you're taking your eyes off the road for at least 2-5 seconds, and if you do that it, will double your chance of getting in an accident," said Chelsea Pompeani, AAA manager of public and community relations.

Pompeani said that approximately 3,000 deaths occur every year from distracted drivers and they are starting to see crashes related to the "Pokemon Go" game since its introduction in the United States on July 7.

Pompeani advises that "Pokemon Go" players do not play behind the wheel, and officials with Allegheny Health Network ask that players stay out of their hospitals. If they do come inside in search of Pokemon, security will be called.

Braunsdorf said that the creators of "Pokemon Go" have agreed to remove their facilities form the game soon.
